Check out page 5, post 95 for a unique user name and a scintillating post on the Spooner School District and Antholz Gymnasium.

When I hit quote to see what would happen, Kramer came up as the handle. That makes sense because that whole thread so far has been Hall of Fame worthy in a Seinfeld kind of way and it's only going to get better as anticipation for the D5 McDonell Central Catholic vs. Augusta at Neillsville game hits fever pitch.

It now shows up as Kramer. That sucks. It would be awesome to pick symbols as a handle.

I wasn't kidding about the Hall of Fame mention, by the way. Page 6 is off to a solid start with the real Kramer leading it off with his second first post (that has been edited four times) and then Rudd follows up with four straight posts commenting on equally important matters.

But let's get back to Kramer. This is a brilliant second paragraph in an informative second first post.

Darrell became the principal and tournament director starting in 1971
and a relative of mine was his secretary for 18 years. She came to the
high school a few months after Antholz retired and part of her job was
to handle ticket sales, which she did from 1962-1984. Most of the seats
at that time were reserved seats, so she had to help Darrell arrange
all of the requests from the time the regionals ended and she spent most
of her evenings that week helping to get everything organized, but
there were others in the school district who worked hard to make it
work. Bob Morey was her boss and the tournament director until he left
to become principal at the new Wausau West High School in the late
60's. He was replaced by John McDermott and Darrell took over for John
when John took the superintendent job at Spooner.

My theory is that this Yuku "clock sync" issue again (the one that led to some replies showing up before the post it was replying to). I think that Kramer's first post was made before his ID existed in whatever database they use to say who makes what post, so the post was by somebody that did not yet exist.

I can't wait to see what happens next.

It feels a bit like Doc Hollywood when Michael J Fox is reading to the illiterate couple (the Pakastani's?), hanging on his every word.....
